The thing is they announced donating much later and the response to people that are complaining was it barely covers out production processes. That's why I was disappointed with Jelly key as much as I like their beautiful craftsmanship. I wish they were more straightforward.
If they stated it upfront, I don't think anybody would complain at all. You can check reddit to see what I'm talking about.
p.s - If I missed something about the last raffle, feel free to pm me what info I missed and I will publicly apologize here.
And to add more for understanding,
Apologies for your disappointment. The raffle was in Christmas, so we would do gift giving, as it was mentioned in the first raffle page, it is in Christmas, and we mentioned about giving more. A Gift. All of the proceeds from the raffle went to charity.
You also mentioned something about reddit. Yes, people in reddit are disappointed, but really its just a butterfly effect that goes around there. I guess there was a misunderstanding, and it feels like there will always be something taken out of context in reddit,more often than in deskthority. The whole karma upvote system can really muddle up the whole situation. Those post comments feel somewhat like deliberation, there are good constructive criticism there, but for some comments it is obvious people take things out of context. We apologize for not getting our message across clearly. We will improve more and more, with your help.
We will also try to be more active in geekhack, where the discussion is more rationalised and reasonable.
I hope this clarifies a bit more. Let me know if you have any more concerns.
